We Give Birth To First Images From ‘Proxy’!
Bloody Disgusting is excited to share the first ever images from the indie thriller Proxy.
Directed by Zack Parker, of the critically acclaimed Scalene, the film stars Alexia Rasmussen (The Comedy, “Mary Not Seen,” the short film that would become Martha Marcy May Marlene), Alexa Havins (“Torchwood”), Kristina Klebe (Rob Zombie’s Halloween) and Joe Swanberg (V/H/S, A Horrible Way to Die, You’re Next).
In the film, “A very pregnant Esther Woodhouse (Rasmussen) is walking home after her latest OB appointment, when she is brutally attacked and disfigured by a hooded assailant. When Esther seeks consolation in a support group, she finds friendship and empathy in Melanie (Havins), another mother scarred with tragedy. Esther soon begins to believe that the horrific event might be a bittersweet act of fate. However, friendship and empathy can be very dangerous things when accepted by the wrong people.”
Proxy is a European-style suspense-thriller that promises to challenge the traditional cinematic form. The screenplay was penned by Parker and Kevin Donner, and is being produced by Parker’s Along The Tracks Productions and Faust Checho’s FSC Productions.

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
